Today we're jumping up one episode to "The Passage"
The entire fleet is cranky and hungry from strict food rationing. Athena has found the algae planet and in order to get there the fleet has to travel through the radiation filled gas cloud. Tensions are high, plans need to be made, and since it's been crisis after crisis with the fleet and fighter squadron the pilots still haven't been able to figure out where they stand. Here's a handy episode rundown courtesy of Battlestar Wiki if you need specifics.
But first to catch you up....
Previously on the NT RPG:
We started the story at the end of UB and Lee and Kara remained laying in the boxing ring after everyone had gone. The knuckledraggers were ordered by Tigh to get the hanger deck back into shape. Helo came along and saved the day by getting the pilots up and off the deck.
Lee went on his own to the head to shower and clear his mind of all that had transpired at the dance. Helo had another plan and dropped Starbuck right back into his lap by delivering her over his shoulder to the head. The crew was sure to start gossiping so Starbuck cleared the room and she and Lee got down to talking about the current state of their relationship. Lee won’t cheat and tells Kara he wants more, Kara admits leaving him in the field and marrying Anders was a mistake and lets it slip that there is more to her abduction on New Caprica. Lee pushes and Kara agrees to talk to him about Leoben and what happened during the occupation
Meanwhile, Roslin sits with Adama in Sickbay while he’s getting patched up from his round with the Chief. Cottle reprimands the old man and orders him off duty for 24 hrs. The President escorts the Admiral back to his quarters and along the way they run into Col. Tigh who lets the cat out of the bag about Starbuck and Apollo’s night on New Caprica. Adama is, of course, dumbfounded. Once in Bill’s quarters Laura tells him that Kara would look to the stars at night and see Pegasus passing and that now she understood that all those months on New Caprica, Kara was missing Lee.
Chief and Cally were trying to sort out the crew chatter about the Dance and find out if the deck gang was doing their jobs or gossiping. Helo and Athena discuss their friends and hope that none of them get hurt in the mess. Sleep eludes Karl and he makes his way to the Gym where Starbuck is already going at the punching bag, the two talk and Kara confides in Helo about her situation with Sam and Lee. He reminds her that she deserves to be happy.
Kat’s avoiding all the drama by heading to the firing range and in walks Sam Anders. Sam knows he’s eventually going to have to face his wife but refuses to be the one to run after her. Kat and Sam both shoot off a few rounds and Kat feels bad for the man as she has witnessed what a Starbuck dressing down does to a nugget, she invites him for a drink.
After his conversation about New Caprica with Kara in the ready room, Lee makes a decision that no matter what happens he’s leaving Dee. He makes his way back to his quarters and begins to pack when Dee walks in. Kara exhausted from the dance and talking, returns to the head to grab a shower before her lunch date with Apollo.
People all over Galactica know that things have changed and everyone wonders what will happen next…

**I know
thegreenkitty is going to be offline for awhile so if anyone is interested in picking up Cottle let me know! Until we can get someone to play and move him around any use of Cottle has to be in Sickbay. So if you're character ends up there you can mod him for the purpose of your scene. Baltar also comes into play shortly so anyone interested in playing the crazy mad scientist he's also open for business as well as Head!Six.
The RPG post for "The Passage" will remain active and open until 11:59PM EST Wednesday. On Thursday's RPG post we will jump another episode to the "Eye of Jupiter" which will run through the end of the week. Please let me know if your character will be unable to check in any of those days and if so, we'll try and work something out.
Post, read and have fun!

Date: 2010-11-30 03:43 pm (UTC)"Facts? Hardly. Rumor and innuendo? I've got enough to fill a hanger bay because it seems that no one on this ship can give me a straight frakking answer. So now it's to you Captain."
He leaned forward, eyes intense and demanding.
"What in the hell happened on New Caprica and are you having an affair with my son?"

Date: 2010-11-30 07:13 pm (UTC)He let out a whoosh of air and stood, pushing back his chair before walking around the desk and going to the bar.
"I need a drink," he said. "I'd offer you one, but I know you're flying in an hour." He glanced back at her briefly.
He poured two fingers of whiskey and drank without speaking for a long minute. His mind was at war between wanting their happiness, but knowing in the pit of his stomach that it could end very badly. It was a dangerous precedent to allow a relationship between his CAG and top pilot. Frat regs existed for a reason. Of course, so did the prohibition against commanding your own son. Frak.
He swirled the alcohol around his his glass and finally faced her. "Does Lee know you left your husband?"
Re: ADMIRAL'S QUARTERS
Date: 2010-11-30 07:29 pm (UTC)Part of her still felt a low murmur of rage. The way Lee had talked to her in the head, cornering her, forcing her hand. And yeah, she'd opened up to him. Let him have a little. She wondered what Lee would say when she finally told him. It was what he wanted right? Maybe she hadn't dropped everything in the spam of hours like he had. But she'd done it. Never told him she was going to, either.
She watched the admiral as he downed his drink wishing desperately that she could have one too. "Will that be all sir?"
Re: ADMIRAL'S QUARTERS
Date: 2010-11-30 08:58 pm (UTC)His voice was laced with a threat and a warning. He needed them to act responsibly. He'd expect no less from Lee and he was willing to do what he needed to do to keep his ship running smoothly.
"Dismissed, Captain. And good hunting."
